Module Configuration Attributes

The following attribute tables contains Module Configuration attributes associated with components that are common to all axis instances of a multi-axis CIP Motion device or module. Examples of these common device components are a Bus Converter, Bus Regulator, Common Power Supply, Feedback Cards, Network Interface, and so on. Module Configuration attributes may be included in the CIP Motion Control Axis Object implementation or they may be included as part of a vendor specific device interface. In the
Rockwell Automation
implementation, these attributes appear as data elements of the Configuration Tag (C-tag) data structure associated with each drive devices connection’s Map Object instance. These C-tag elements are not accessible as object attributes and therefore cannot be referenced programmatically using SSV, GSV, or MSG instructions. The Need in Implementation Rules apply for either case.
The following general categories of module configuration attributes that are defined:
Category
Usage
Used to configure elements of the Configuration Block sent in the CIP Motion Forward_Open.
Used to configure Motion Device Axis Object class attributes associated with the device.
Used to configure Motion Device Axis Object axis attributes that apply to a common device component.
Used to configure the mapping of feedback ports to feedback channels for each axis instance.
Used to configure various time related aspects of the CIP Motion device.
Used to determine the size and content of the configuration data needed by the CIP Motion device.
